The Saint spearhead slotted 10 goals against South Warrnambool on Saturday in his third game back from a knee injury.
Dowie said the creative Dobson booted four majors in the final term of the Saints’ 23.20 (158) to 7.6 (48) win at Victoria Park. Koroit kicked 10.8 in a fourth quarter rampage.
“His best is yet to come. His touch isn’t quite there yet,” Dowie said.
South Warrnambool coach Nigel Kol said Dobson was impressive.
“He marked everything coming in and if he wasn’t (Michael) Darmody was,” he said.
“We were skinny on tall defenders but our guys didn’t shirk the issue.”
